Pink Concrete is the alias of Yalin, a Prague-based DJ and producer originally from Istanbul, who moved to the Czech capital in 2015 - initially to study sports sciences, but stayed for the music. He plays techno with a light-hearted, sometimes melancholic edge, describing his approach as doing "pink touches to concrete music". In Prague he co-founded the club series Kave and Anormal, and is part of the hereandthere collective, which stages one-night events in unconventional spaces. His 2024 debut EP for Ben Sims' Hardgroove label and the 2025 solo EP Jazz Sultan on hereandthere brought him wider international attention.
Pink Concrete released a solo EP Jazz Sultan (HNT003) on his own label hereandthere - the record is dedicated to Frederick Bruce Thomas, the first Black Russian citizen nicknamed Jazz Sultan, who worked, among other places, in Istanbul.
The track "Have You Ever Played Bounce" was released on the compilation SEVEN Various Artists 02 by the Berlin label SEVEN, where Pink Concrete appears alongside Zombies in Miami and Byron Yeates.
The debut EP Soulfood for Ben Sims' label Hardgroove was released on August 9, 2024 - the six-track record includes four original compositions and two remixes by the duo Fireground (Illian Tape / Tresor).
Pink Concrete recorded a mix for the Vault Sessions series (#228), which was published on YouTube in December 2024.
The composition Soulfood was included in the Slam Radio mix (#607) in July 2024, confirming the growing interest of international DJs in his production.
